    Can I copy and paste rows in Browser Forms?

    I have a form with a repeating table. When I open it in Client I can insert and remove rows, as well as the options to cut, copy and paste. However, when I open the form in the browser then I can only insert and remove. I cannot copy and paste rows. Is this a limitation with the browser-enabled forms?  

    Is there any getaround to allow users to copy and paste rows in browser forms? Our data is often very similar to the row above, so it will be great if users can copy and paste it and then just change a field or two. It is now very time-consuming for people to enter seemingly similar data. 

    Any suggestions will be appreciated. BTW, I am using InfoPath 2007.

    I believe this is a limitation with Infopath browser forms that you cannot copy rows in repeating tables.  You could try creating your own copy paste behaviour in the browser using buttons, temp variables and rules.  It would probably be a bit of work to set it up, but at least it might be ab alternative you could look into.
